Introduction to Peter B Parker
Marvel Strike Force Peter B Parker is a recent and highly anticipated addition to Marvel Strike Force, making a significant impact by joining the Spider Society faction. As a Hero, City, Bio, Skill, Support character, Marvel Strike Force Peter B Parker adds considerable depth to the roster of playable characters, offering a unique blend of traits and abilities that can be utilized across a variety of team compositions.
His Spider-Verse and Spider-Society traits enhance his synergy with other characters in the Spider-Verse universe, making him a valuable asset for teams centered around these themes. In particular, Peter B Parker is an essential Support character for the newly introduced Spider-Society Raid team, where he excels in providing crucial healing, empowering his allies with various buffs, and efficiently clearing negative effects that may hinder his team’s performance.
Peter B Parker’s abilities are finely tuned to ensure that his allies remain in optimal condition throughout raids and battles, and his healing capabilities offer the sustaining power needed to weather even the toughest encounters. His kit is not just about support but also about maintaining the momentum of the team, offering a combination of sustain and utility that can turn the tide of battle when used strategically. Whether removing harmful debuffs or boosting the team’s effectiveness with buffs, Peter B Parker is designed to enhance the overall synergy of any team he is part of, making him indispensable in high-level gameplay, especially in the context of the Spider-Society Raid.
This version of Peter Parker is inspired by the animated film Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, and he hails from Earth 616b, a unique alternate reality that stands apart from the primary Marvel comic universe (Earth-616). While Peter B Parker shares the same iconic Spider-Man identity, this version offers a much more seasoned and world-weary hero.
Unlike his younger and more carefree 616 counterpart, Peter B Parker has lived through his own set of trials and tribulations, which have shaped him into a more mature and reflective version of Spider-Man. His experiences, including personal loss and growth, have made him more cautious yet deeply determined to protect those he cares about. In both lore and gameplay, Peter B Parker’s maturity provides a fresh dynamic, offering a different perspective on the Spider-Man legacy and presenting players with a unique, emotionally rich character that adds nuance to the broader Spider-Verse storyline within the game.

Minus Level Level Up!Basic – Morning Routine: Peter B. Parker’s Basic – Morning Routine attack deals damage to the primary target while applying Offense Down for 2 turns. Additionally, it grants Regeneration to the 2 most injured Hero Spider-Verse allies or himself, and provides Evade to the 2 most injured Spider-Society allies or himself, adding an extra layer of protection. This move also activates on Iso-8/Counterattack/Assist, applying the same effects, though with slightly reduced damage. The T4 upgrade improves the Morning Routine by increasing the damage to the primary target by 30% and applies Regeneration and Evade to the two most injured allies rather than just one, making it a valuable T4 upgrade, especially if using the Striker class.
Special – Mayday’s First Webs (3/3 Energy Cost): The Special – Mayday’s First Webs attack targets both the primary and adjacent enemies, dealing damage while clearing all positive effects from the targets. It also applies Offense Down for 2 turns and clears Heal Block from Peter B. Parker and all Spider-Society allies. This ability grants Regeneration to all Hero Spider-Verse allies and heals the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally for 30% of Peter’s Max Health.
It also applies Offense Up to the Hero Spider-Verse ally with the highest damage—typically Ghost-Spider in Skill Raids. Furthermore, Peter B. calls upon the Hero Spider-Verse ally with the least Speed Bar to attack the most injured enemy, effectively giving that ally a second turn. The T4 upgrade increases the damage by 40% and enhances the special by calling the Hero Spider-Verse ally with at least some Speed Bar to attack the most injured enemy. This is considered a strong T4 upgrade, improving damage output and the utility of calling an additional ally to attack, though it is not deemed essential.
Ultimate – Daddy Daughter Day (3/6 Energy Cost): Peter B. Parker’s Ultimate – Daddy Daughter Day attack deals significant damage to the primary and adjacent targets while applying Offense Down and Disrupted for 2 turns, useful for neutralizing tanks or damage dealers. It clears all negative effects from himself and all Hero Spider-Verse allies while applying Defense Up for 2 turns to himself and all Hero Spider-Verse allies. This ability grants Immunity to all Spider-Society characters, providing critical protection in Raids.
Additionally, it applies 3 Regeneration to the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally and 3 Counter to the Hero Spider-Verse ally with the highest damage. The ultimate also heals Peter B. Parker and all allies for 25% of his Max Health. In Raids, this healing extends to all Spider-Society characters, restoring a total of 50% of his Max Health. The T4 upgrade improves the damage by 40% to both primary and secondary targets, increases the Disrupted duration to 2 turns, and grants Immunity to both Peter B. Parker and all Spider-Society allies. This upgrade is considered essential, especially for maximizing the effectiveness of Raids.
Passive – Baby On Board: Peter B. Parker’s passive ability, Baby On Board, provides a variety of supportive effects that benefit his team in both Raids and other game modes. Upon spawning, he grants +2 Deathproof, +2 Defense Up, +2 Deflect, and +2 Regeneration to himself and all Hero Spider-Verse allies, which applies across all game modes. In Raids, he applies +1 Safeguard to himself and all Spider-Society allies, with the T4 upgrade adding an additional +1 Safeguard to his allies. Each time Peter B Parker takes a turn, he prolongs the duration of all positive effects by +1 on the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally, ensuring that his team stays stronger for longer.
He also applies Assist Now to the highest damage Hero Spider-Verse ally with a base 10% Assist Chance, which increases by 10% per Spider-Society ally on the field, allowing for up to a 60% chance with a full team. On top of that, when this character or any Hero Spider-Verse ally is attacked, Peter B. Parker will heal the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally or himself for 20% of his Max Health on any enemy turn. If the attacked character had Vulnerable, he clears Vulnerable from himself and all Spider-Society allies.
His passive also provides a significant stat boost for Spider-Society allies, granting them +50% Max Health and +50% Resistance, with an additional +100% Resistance in Raids. Moreover, if Peter B. has three or more Spider-Society allies, enemies cannot apply Defense Down to them, a valuable benefit in Raids. The T4 upgrade further strengthens this passive ability by applying an additional Safeguard to all Spider-Society allies and ensuring that they cannot gain Defense Down when Peter B. Parker has three or more Spider-Society allies on the team. This upgrade is considered essential for improving performance in Raids.
Overall, Peter B. Parker’s abilities make him an invaluable Support character within the Spider-Society faction, especially in Raid environments. His healing, buffs, and ability to clear negative effects from allies provide critical support to his team, ensuring their survival and enhancing their performance. The T4 upgrades significantly boost his overall impact, making him an even more essential asset to the Spider-Society team.
Tactical Use and Synergy
Peter B. Parker is primarily designed as a Support character for the Spider-Society Raid team, though his abilities also offer synergy with other Hero Spider-Verse teams, making him a versatile option for multiple team compositions.
Role within Spider-Society: Peter B. plays a key role as a Healer, providing essential healing for both Hero Spider-Verse and Spider-Society allies. His passive ability triggers healing for the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally whenever any such ally is attacked, and his special and ultimate abilities provide direct healing and regeneration. In Raids, his ultimate ability offers significant healing to the entire Spider-Society team. As a Buffer, Peter B. supports his allies by granting a range of positive effects, such as Deathproof, Defense Up, Deflect, and Regeneration to all Hero Spider-Verse allies when he spawns.
In Raids, he grants Safeguard to all Spider-Society allies. His turn-based effects include prolonging buffs on the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally and granting Assist Now to the highest damage Hero Spider-Verse ally, improving team synergy and offense. As a Debuffer, Peter B. applies Offense Down on all his abilities, with his ultimate also applying Disrupted to enemies.
His special can also clear positive effects from enemies, reducing their ability to resist his team's attacks. Additionally, his passive boosts the stats of Spider-Society allies, providing increases to Max Health and Resistance. In Raids, his passive grants immunity to Defense Down for the Spider-Society team if he has three or more Spider-Society allies, providing protection against one of the most common debuffs in high-level content.
Synergy with Spider-Society: Peter B. Parker’s abilities are tailored to synergize with the Spider-Society team, making him indispensable for their success. His T4 upgrades to his passive and ultimate are particularly important in Raids, with the passive granting additional Safeguard and preventing Defense Down on the Spider-Society team. His ultimate provides Immunity, crucial for the team’s survivability in Raids.
Having three or more Spider-Society allies also activates the Defense Down immunity on the team, further strengthening their resilience. His increasing Assist Chance based on the number of Spider-Society allies means more frequent support actions, ensuring that buffs such as Offense Down, Regeneration, and Evade are applied across the team. Moreover, his special ability allows him to call a Hero Spider-Verse ally with the least speed bar to attack, giving slower characters an extra turn and boosting the team’s overall effectiveness.
Synergy with Hero Spider-Verse: Peter B. Parker’s Hero Spider-Verse synergy expands his usefulness beyond the Spider-Society team. Many of his abilities, such as his on-spawn buffs and passive healing, benefit all Hero Spider-Verse allies. His passive healing triggers whenever any Hero Spider-Verse ally is attacked, allowing him to support a wide range of characters. He also prolongs buffs on the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally and provides valuable assist actions to the highest damage Hero Spider-Verse ally.
His potential synergies with teams like Tangled Web (Spider-Man Noir, Ghost-Spider) or teams involving Gwenom and Void Knight in Bio Raids are noteworthy, as they share the Hero Spider-Verse tag. Additionally, his abilities offer strong support for Web-Warriors outside of Raids until the full Spider-Society team is assembled.
Tactical Use in Raids: Peter B. Parker is a cornerstone of the Spider-Society Raid team, providing much-needed healing, buffs, and debuffs. His T4 upgrades are considered essential for Raid success, with the Safeguard on spawn and the Defense Down immunity being crucial to the team’s ability to withstand powerful debuffs. His Immunity and healing abilities are especially valuable in maintaining the team’s survivability during lengthy Raid encounters.
His passive healing and his ability to clear Vulnerable from Spider-Society allies when a Hero Spider-Verse ally is attacked make him a strong counter to the Iso attacks frequently encountered in Raids. Peter B. is also effective in Skill nodes in Incursion Raids, where his abilities complement the needs of teams built around this trait.
Tactical Use Outside of Raids: While Peter B. is primarily designed for Raids, his Hero Spider-Verse synergy allows him to be useful in other game modes. He can provide healing and buffs to teams in Crucible and War, especially when paired with Tangled Web. His potential utility in Dark Dimension is under consideration, particularly for the City nodes due to his Skill and City traits. In Blitz, his strong survivability makes him a challenging opponent, but his overall impact may be less significant outside of a dedicated team. His slower speed, which can hinder his effectiveness outside of Raids, is mitigated somewhat in Spider-Society teams, where they gain initial speed boosts.
Iso-8 Class: Peter B. Parker benefits from several Iso-8 classes. Striker is an excellent choice, as it boosts his ability to apply Evade and Regeneration on ISO attacks, which synergizes with his assist chance and overall team support. Raider is another solid option, as his special and ultimate target multiple enemies, providing more opportunities to apply Vulnerable. The Healer class can further enhance his healing capabilities, particularly at lower levels, although his passive healing is already substantial. Skirmisher may also be a viable choice to increase his Focus for debuff applications, particularly in Raids where enemies have high Resistance.
T4 Priority: The T4 upgrade for his passive is essential for improving his effectiveness in Raids, as it grants additional Safeguard and prevents Defense Down. The T4 upgrade for his ultimate is also critical, as it increases damage, extends the Disrupted duration, and grants Immunity to both Peter and the Spider-Society team. The T4 upgrade for his basic boosts damage and enhances his support capabilities by applying Regeneration and Evade to two allies instead of one, making it a solid choice for improving his consistency. Lastly, the T4 upgrade for his special increases damage and grants an additional ally the opportunity to attack, providing more damage potential and utility.
In summary, Peter B. Parker is a cornerstone of the Spider-Society Raid team, providing crucial healing, buffs, and debuffs. His abilities, particularly his passive and ultimate, are essential for Raid success, and his Hero Spider-Verse synergy offers flexibility for other modes. Choosing the right Iso-8 class and prioritizing his T4 upgrades will further maximize his tactical effectiveness and make him an indispensable part of the Spider-Society team.
Iso-8 and T4 Recommendations
When selecting the ideal Iso-8 class for Peter B. Parker, several options stand out based on his role and abilities. The best choice depends on his star level and your team composition.
Striker is a highly recommended choice for Peter B. Parker, particularly when equipped with his T4 Basic ability. This upgrade applies Regeneration to the two most injured Hero Spider-Verse allies or himself and Evade to the two most injured Spider-Society allies or himself on ISO attacks, complementing his assist chance. This synergy increases the frequency of these beneficial effects, enhancing team support. Striker works well when paired with a character like Ghost-Spider in Bio raids, especially if she is also a Striker, as her ISO attack applies Vulnerable, boosting overall damage potential.
Raider is another strong Iso-8 class for Peter B. Parker, as his special and ultimate abilities target multiple enemies, allowing him to apply more Vulnerable effects. This boosts overall team damage by increasing the likelihood of critical hits, especially when paired with Spider-Man (Pavitr), who benefits from the increased crit damage and crit chance provided by the Raider class.
Healer can be a good option for early stages of the game, especially at lower star levels, to compensate for Peter B. Parker’s lower health and enhance his already strong healing capabilities. However, his passive healing is so potent that this class is often unnecessary at higher star levels, as his support role is well-covered by his natural abilities.
Skirmisher is another viable class choice, particularly if you're facing opponents with high resistance in raids. The Skirmisher class provides additional Vulnerable applications, which can be useful for increasing debuff effectiveness. It also allows for the clearance of buffs from enemies, making it a good option for handling tricky opponents in raids.
For T4 Ability Upgrades, the following recommendations are crucial to maximize Peter B. Parker’s effectiveness in various game modes:
Passive Ability ("Baby on Board"): This T4 upgrade is essential, particularly for Raids. It applies an additional Safeguard to Peter B. Parker and all Spider-Society allies on spawn. If Peter B. has at least three Spider-Society allies, both he and the team gain immunity to Defense Down, significantly enhancing their survivability and making it easier to handle challenging enemies in high-level content.
Ultimate Ability ("Daddy Daughter Day"): The T4 upgrade for the Ultimate is also considered essential. This upgrade increases damage to the primary and secondary targets, extends the Disrupted debuff from one to two turns, and grants Immunity to Peter B. Parker and all Spider-Society allies. This provides a major boost to the team’s sustainability and control over the enemy, particularly in raid scenarios.
Basic Ability: The T4 upgrade to the basic attack is very valuable. It increases damage to the primary target by 30%, but more importantly, it extends his support capabilities by applying Regeneration to the two most injured Hero Spider-Verse allies or himself and Evade to the two most injured Spider-Society allies or himself (instead of just one). This upgrade enhances Peter B. Parker’s consistency in providing support across multiple allies, ensuring that he can keep his team healthy and evasive during battles.
Special Ability: The T4 upgrade to his special ability is highly recommended for additional damage output and utility. It adds 40% more damage to both the primary and secondary targets and allows Peter B. Parker to call the Hero Spider-Verse ally with the least speed bar to attack the most injured enemy. This extra attack can help boost damage, especially for slower allies, and offers additional versatility in team strategy. While not considered as essential as the Passive and Ultimate upgrades, it is still very beneficial.
In summary, Peter B. Parker's T4 upgrades should prioritize his Passive and Ultimate abilities, with the Special following closely behind. The Basic upgrade is valuable but can be prioritized lower if resources are limited. For Iso-8 classes, Striker and Raider are the top recommendations for maximizing his impact, with Healer useful in early stages and Skirmisher serving as an option for high-resistance opponents.
Character Progression
To effectively progress Peter B. Parker in Marvel Strike Force, focus on leveling and gearing him appropriately. As a support and healer, his effectiveness scales with his Max Health, which directly enhances his healing abilities. It is highly recommended to invest in his gear and level, aiming for a minimum of level 90, gear 17 or ideally gear 18 at level 95 to maximize his potential. Building Peter B. Parker to a higher star level is also beneficial, particularly as he gains more health, which in turn strengthens his healing capabilities.
When it comes to selecting an Iso-8 class, Peter B. Parker has several viable options based on your strategy. Striker is a strong choice, particularly with his T4 Basic upgrade. This upgrade applies Regeneration to the two most injured Hero Spider-Verse allies or himself and Evade to the two most injured Spider-Society allies or himself during his ISO attacks, synergizing well with his assist chance. As his stars and health increase, transitioning to Striker from Healer can be a good strategy.
Raider is another excellent choice because his special and ultimate abilities hit multiple enemies, allowing him to apply more Vulnerable debuffs, and the Crit Chance and Crit Damage from Spider-Man (Pavitr) further enhance his damage potential. Healer is beneficial at lower star levels, where his health is not as high, but it becomes less necessary at higher levels due to his strong passive healing. Skirmisher can also be considered, especially if you’re dealing with high resistance enemies in raids, as it increases his Focus and allows him to apply Vulnerable more effectively.
For T4 Ability Upgrades, the following are critical for Peter B. Parker’s performance, particularly in raid scenarios. The Passive Ability ("Baby on Board") upgrade is essential, as it provides an additional Safeguard to Peter B. and all Spider-Society allies upon spawn and prevents Defense Down if there are three or more Spider-Society allies in Raids. This is key for team survivability. The Ultimate Ability ("Daddy Daughter Day") is another essential upgrade, as it increases the damage to primary and secondary targets, extends the Disrupted debuff duration to two turns, and grants Immunity to Peter B. and all Spider-Society allies, ensuring their protection in raids.
The Basic Ability ("Morning Routine") is highly valuable and recommended, as it adds 30% more damage to the primary target and applies Regeneration and Evade to two injured allies, enhancing his consistent support role. Finally, the Special Ability ("Mayday's First Webs") also provides great value, boosting damage by 40% to both the primary and secondary targets and calling the Hero Spider-Verse ally with the least speed bar to attack the most injured enemy, giving slower allies an extra turn.
In Dark Dimension, Peter B. Parker is a solid choice for the City nodes due to his Skill and City traits. Investing in the Spider-Society team can also be advantageous for this section, as it allows you to utilize Skill gear that you may have accumulated. While not necessarily the top-tier characters for Dark Dimension, their survivability plays a crucial role in progressing through the nodes.
For Red Stars, prioritize high Red Stars on Peter B. Parker to boost his healing and overall performance, making him a more impactful support character. By focusing on leveling and gearing him properly, selecting the right Iso-8 class (with Striker and Raider being prime options), and prioritizing T4 upgrades for his Passive and Ultimate, you can significantly enhance his effectiveness, especially within the Spider-Society raid team.
Is Peter B Parker Worth Investing In?
Investing in Peter B. Parker is primarily influenced by your priorities in Marvel Strike Force and the goals of your alliance. Here’s a breakdown to help guide your decision:
Reasons to Invest in Peter B. Parker:
Peter B. Parker is a crucial member of the Spider-Society raid team, especially for Skill raid lanes. His abilities are designed to excel in raids, offering significant healing, applying Safeguard to the team on spawn in raids, and preventing Defense Down from being applied to the team when three or more Spider-Society allies are present. His strong support kit is a key factor, as he provides healing through both direct and regeneration effects.
He also applies useful positive effects like Deathproof, Defense Up, Deflect, and Regeneration to Hero Spider-Verse allies on spawn. Additionally, his ultimate T4 grants Immunity to the Spider-Society, further enhancing his raid utility. His passive ability provides healing to the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally whenever one is attacked, improving team sustainability. With high health, Peter B. Parker is a durable support character that boosts his healing potential.
Peter B. Parker synergizes exceptionally well with the Spider-Society team, providing stat boosts like increased Max Health and Resistance to his allies. He also has an increased assist chance with more Spider-Society allies, helping with consistent debuff application. His Skill and City traits make him a viable option for Dark Dimension City nodes, especially when paired with other Spider-Society members, giving you the opportunity to utilize accumulated Skill gear. While designed primarily for the Spider-Society, his passive ability benefits all Hero Spider-Verse allies, making him a decent plug-and-play support for teams in modes like Crucible or War, at least until the full Spider-Society team is assembled.
Reasons to Potentially Hold Off or Skip:
Peter B. Parker's kit is heavily focused on raid performance, and his impact in other game modes is less significant. If you're not prioritizing raid progression, his effectiveness in modes like Blitz or Arena may be limited. Additionally, Peter B. Parker functions best when part of the full Spider-Society team, which is being released in phases. The last member, Penny Parker, is yet to be introduced, meaning you won’t fully unlock the team’s potential until she arrives. Both Peter B. Parker and Penny Parker have relatively low speed, which could hinder their effectiveness as plug-and-play characters outside of raids, especially in modes where speed is critical.
If your alliance does not aim for 100% completion in high-level raids or isn’t focused on preparing for future legendary character requirements, you might consider skipping or delaying investment in Peter B. Parker.
Conclusion:
If your alliance is focused on pushing for higher raid tiers, particularly in Incursion raids or upcoming raid content, investing in Peter B. Parker is likely a wise choice. His supportive abilities and synergy with the Spider-Society team make him a valuable asset in raid progression.
However, if you’re not prioritizing raids and instead seek characters with broad utility across multiple game modes, a more cautious approach may be appropriate. You could consider minimal investment to unlock him and observe how the Spider-Society team performs once it’s fully released before committing additional resources.
Ultimately, the decision to invest in Peter B. Parker depends on your personal goals and the needs of your alliance. Discussing your priorities with alliance members can help you align your investments with the collective objectives.
Comic Book Background (For Enhanced Understanding)
Peter B. Parker is an alternate universe version of Spider-Man introduced in the animated movie "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse". His universe is designated as Earth-616b, a slight deviation from the main Marvel comic book continuity of Earth-616. This version of Peter Parker is more mature, having experienced significant personal losses, which shape his character. He is not directly based on a specific comic counterpart but is instead an amalgamation of various aspects from different Peter Parker storylines across the multiverse.
In his backstory, Peter B. Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider, granting him superhuman abilities, spider-sense, and wall-crawling. Like other versions of Spider-Man, he uses web-shooters for his iconic web-slinging. He is portrayed as being in his mid to upper 30s, having been married to Mary Jane Watson, then divorced, and later remarried her. His daughter, Mayday Parker, is featured in both the movie and the game, mirroring the storyline in which Peter is seen with Mayday strapped to him. This mirrors a storyline in the comics where Peter Parker had a daughter named May Parker, initially thought to be stillborn but later kidnapped. Another daughter, Annie May Parker, exists in the main 616 continuity as well.
In Peter B. Parker's timeline, both Aunt May and Uncle Ben have passed away. The death of Uncle Ben in a mugging remains a pivotal moment in his life, with the lesson of "with great power comes great responsibility" still being a driving force in his actions. The loss of Aunt May in his older age is portrayed as a significant emotional setback, contributing to a more jaded and bitter version of Peter.
There is a possibility that his divergence from the main timeline is linked to the events of the "One More Day" storyline, where Peter Parker made a deal with the demon Mephisto to save Aunt May’s life, resulting in the erasure of his marriage to Mary Jane. In Peter B. Parker's reality, it’s theorized that this deal never occurred, leading to Aunt May’s death, Peter’s depressive slump, and eventual separation from Mary Jane.
Though Peter B. Parker doesn’t exist in the comics in the exact form presented in the movie, his story is heavily inspired by the "Spider-Verse" comic book event that took place in 2014-2015. This event brought together Spider-People from across the multiverse to battle a common threat known as the Inheritors. It explored the concept of a multiversal Spider-Society and the interactions between various Spider-Man variants, which are also central to the movie’s plot. In the comic event, there is also a version of Mayday Parker.
Peter B. Parker’s affiliations in the movie include the Spider-Society, which is the multiversal equivalent of teams like the Web-Warriors in the comics. While not directly part of mainstream comic continuity, Peter B. Parker would likely have been affiliated with groups like the Avengers and the Fantastic Four before the divergence in his timeline.
In summary, Peter B. Parker is a unique, movie-created character, inspired by several key comic book storylines, particularly those involving a more mature, weary Peter Parker and the concept of a multiverse populated with various Spider-People. His backstory, while not directly lifted from comic pages, adds rich depth to his character, particularly in terms of his personal struggles, family connections, and his place within the broader multiverse of Spider-Men.
Conclusion
Peter B. Parker is primarily designed as a crucial support character for the Spider-Society raid team, excelling in Incursion Raids and likely playing a key role in future raid content. His kit is heavily focused on healing, applying positive effects (such as Deathproof, Defense Up, Deflect, Regeneration, Safeguard, and Immunity), and providing sustain to his Spider-Verse and especially his Spider-Society allies. His passive ability, which heals the most injured Hero Spider-Verse ally when any is attacked, is particularly valuable for maintaining survivability in raids.
Peter B. Parker is an alternate universe version of Spider-Man from Earth-616b, as seen in "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse." He is an amalgamation of various Spider-Man storylines, with his older, more jaded portrayal potentially stemming from a timeline where the events of the "One More Day" comic did not resolve with a deal with Mephisto. Though not a direct comic book character, he embodies themes and relationships familiar to Spider-Man lore, including his connection with Mary Jane Watson and his daughter Mayday Parker.
Investing in Peter B Parker is highly recommended if your alliance is actively pushing for higher tiers in raids, particularly Skill raids, as the Spider-Society team is specifically designed to excel in these environments. His abilities are vital for providing the sustain and support necessary to tackle challenging raid nodes. Furthermore, the Spider-Society team is expected to be required for upcoming raid content, making investment in Peter B Parker essential for participation.
However, his primary value lies within the Spider-Society team in raids, and his effectiveness outside of this context might be limited due to his kit's focus and lower speed compared to other characters. The full potential of the Spider-Society team will not be realized until all members, including the crucial Penny Parker, are released.
Ultimately, the decision to invest significantly in Peter B Parker depends on your alliance’s raid goals and your personal priorities in Marvel Strike Force. If raid progression is a top priority, he is a worthwhile investment. If you prioritize characters with broader utility across multiple game modes, a more measured approach might be wise, observing the full Spider-Society team's performance before committing extensive resources. Additionally, with his Skill and City tags, he is a potential option for Dark Dimension City nodes, which could provide another reason to invest in him.
